That made money.
We would've made more
if we thought bigger.
Would've made more
if we'd thought bigger.
- This concept is far more imaginative.
- This concept is far more imaginative.
We're taking in textiles,
ceramics, sportswear...
...travel, rugs.
It's the size of this thing
that make me nervous, sir.
Yes. If the people of Bedford Park
find the Orient too exotic...
...we'll end up with a warehouse...
...full of kimonos and ginger jars.
- A**hole!
- Don't say that!
- I don't know.
There won't be room in the warehouse,
Larry. It'll be full of recalled moose?
- What's this?
- Yeah, you never told me about this!
- Wasrt time for what?
- To tell you about it, sir.
- Tell me what?
Our purchase-with-purchase
Jingle Bell Moose, sir.
A few of them were defective
and Marshall recalled 100,000.
Were you deranged?
Kids were getting ripped off. It just
seemed like the right thing to do.
- Don't make a sound.
- There's no need for physical violence.
- Don't make a sound.
- I won't. I'm not a moron.
Would I feel easier
if this high-flying China Seas concept...
...were in the hands of someone
less impulsive?
Would you like me
to clarify the question?
Well, see...
...I don't know how you feel.
I only know that the man you're
looking at cares a lot about this job.
He works real hard at it.
He works on weekends,
he works at nights.
Sometimes he doesn't even
get enough time to see his kid...
...people he cares about.
Now you say if his idea doesn't work,
he's gonna get fired?
Well, that sucks!
That's treating him
like some kind of yin-yang.
Well, if it's a yin-yang you want
for this job...
...you got three much better guys
to choose from.
Dad?
Dad!
Now, I don't want you to get upset,
and I don't want you to panic.
- The thing is, I've been kidnapped.
- What do you mean, kidnapped?!
- Where are you? Who did it?
- Stop that.
What did I just ask you not to do?
Now, listen carefully and just make
a note of everything this person says.
- Now, listen up.
- Have you done this before?
I need the skull.
- Mister...
- Seymour.
- Seymour. It's not here.
- It's not here?
I told you I wished
to show it to someone.
Look, you don't know
Not to worry,
I have his address here.
Somewhere.
Address, address, address...
Come closer, young man.
I need the skull, sir.
I'm totally desperate.
Come. Sit down.
Sorry.
Look, if you're so desperate for money,
let me make you an offer.
I have a little set aside:
Savings, bonds, T-bills.
In your piggy bank?
For God's sake, will you stop
treating me like a child.
The skull made me a child.
It has magical powers.
I am not me, and my father is not him.
My father is me, and I am my father.
Yes, yes. And we are the world.
Turkey or chicken salad?
Okay.
So how do I know you were
in the Oriental Palace in Bangkok?
You took a Polaroid of me
and my girlfriend.
You were wearing a cheap linen suit
with soy sauce on the lapel.
Hey, get off the line, you pervert!
It's me! I just made it.
All right. Okay. Now...
...here's what you do.
There's been some very weird stuff
he's been telling me you should know.
We should talk.
Talk? You wanna talk now?
He says he's a father.
Horny little bastard.
Dad!
- You got it?
- Yeah.
Wait! Where's my dad?
- I got it!
- Are you sure?
Dad! Dad, are you okay?
Did you look? Did you check?
Put me down! They're going
to the train station. We gotta go!
Let's go! I saw their tickets.
New York, 3:
00, track 12.- Taxi!
- Forget it. We've only got 12 minutes.
- Officer! This old lady's being mugged!
- Where?
- Up on the platform.
- Thanks, kid.
- We can't!
- Charlie, we have no choice.
- I can't drive it.
- I can.
You better wear it, Dad.
Dad!
Dad!
I'm telling you, the kid says
it has magical powers.
I believe it.
It's going to make us rich.
What the hell was that?
Heading west on Harrison in pursuit
of a midget on one of our bikes.
The same kind of trains here, okay?
Did you hear what the man said?
- Look, "To all trains." What did I say?
- We're not gonna make it.
Hang on!
- You all right?
- Yeah.
Where you going, Dad? Wrong way!
Turn it, Dad! They're there!
Calhoun, Chicago Vice!
Way to go!
All right!
Dad, you're a totally intense dude.
Thank you, Charlie.
That's the nicest thing
you ever said to me.
I couldn't. I feel sick.
- Lf we'd have been caught...
- We werert.
We'd be looking at 25 years.
Life.
Oh, boy. With this,
we can afford to go legit.
Just as well,
your nerves are shot to sh*t.
- It's me who's been taking all the risks.
- Excuse me?
- Oh, sorry.
- Excuse me.
Dad, knock.
Think you got a rough deal
traveling around the East?
Don't tell me
you don't have girls there.
You'd trade all that for a New York
winter on 34th Street?
New York? I wish!
Sorry.
I tried to warn you.
Come on, let's go. Let's go!
Run! Go!
It happens to the best of families.
Dad, what are we gonna do?
If we tell them the truth,
we end up in straitjackets.
We don't. We take the rap.
I have a great lawyer.
Your defense is "executive burnout."
Please, don't cry. Here.
No.
Those people that kidnapped you?
Think about it.
Oh, yeah.
I guess they got theirs.
Cliff!
Hi, Marshall.
You're lucky I was home
when they called the house.
Listen, your mom
doesn't know anything about this.
I told her I'd pick you up after school,
we went to see a movie.
- Thanks, Cliff.
- Thanks, Cliff.
Yeah, well...
...I don't wanna give her
any more grief.
Marshall, come here.
Marshall, I don't know
what to say to you.
Pull it together.
I know you don't get a chance
to see much of your kid...
...but I think today
maybe you overcompensated.
- Yes, Cliff.
- Yes, Cliff.
Anyway, you're free to go
on your own recognizance.
I know the captain.
He knocked the counts down to seven.
- Thanks a lot, Cliff.
- Thanks a lot, Cliff.
Yeah. Let's go home.
Oh, you better take that.
Sam!
I got your message, Marshall.
What happened to you?
Where have you been?
I had to do some stuff.
What happened at the meeting
after I left?
Well, I'll have to tell you, it was a little
tense in there for about 30 seconds.
Finally, Avery says:
"Unless the yin-yangs
have objections...
...I think we should let Marshall
run with this sucker."
Does that mean I still have a job?
That's great, Sam.
Let's celebrate.
No! There's something you
gotta do for me, Sam.
Take me over to Charlie's real quick.
- Why?
- I got a Christmas present for him.
You and Charlie have gotten
much closer, haven't you?
We need each other.
Marshall, you do know
I'm going home for Christmas.
Do you want to come?
The apartment's gonna
seem pretty lonely.
- Especially with Charlie gone.
- Yeah, it's real lonely.
I've been thinking about that.
I don't think it's right
